If you’re like me, you use YouTube almost as much as you use Google to find information. Sometimes, you just want to see how it’s done instead of reading a step by step guide, right?

Or maybe you’re looking for the answer to a question, and Google sends you to a video on topic. Then you get distracted by the similar videos that YouTube suggests you watch next, because YouTube is pretty good at that kind of thing. And those might include a related classic movie clip or two…

In the interest of saving you a lot of distraction time and helping your job search along the way, I compiled this list of the most popular job search-related videos on YouTube.

It’s all here:
